Fly over to Ril’s and land Down Under! We’ll be bringing you a history of classic Australian hits from the 1960s to the present.
Sandra is a regular at Ril’s with her band InTown and has a broad repertoire from jazz and show tunes to classic pop and disco. Alex is well-known to the KL scene for his rich blues voice – and he plays a mean harmonica.
They are teaming up to give you a trip down memory lane or to simply discover the variety Australian contemporary music has offered the world the last 60 years.
We’ll be covering locally and internationally successful tunes from The Seekers, Helen Reddy, Skyhooks, Rick Springfield, Little River Band, John Farnham, Olivia Newton John, Mondo Rock, AC/DC, Australian Crawl, The Angels, Cold Chisel, Kids in the Kitchen, Peter Allen, John Paul Young, Midnight Oil, INXS, Kylie and much much more!
InTown, led by Ui Li Loh on the keyboards, Ayam on drums, Che Wan on bass and Mizi on lead guitar, are a busy bunch of talented musicians, who also play independently for well-known Malaysian singers.
We’ll also have 18-year old Aussie Vanessa as our guest singer doing some modern songs by Natalie Imbruglia and Jessica Mauboy.
